Name | TAS2R4 |
---|---|
Function | Gustducin-coupled receptor for denatonium and N(6)-propyl-2- thiouracil implicated in the perception of bitter compounds in the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract. Signals through PLCB2 and the calcium-regulated cation channel TRPM5. In airway epithelial cells, binding of denatonium increases the intracellular calcium ion concentration and stimulates ciliary beat frequency. |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Multi- pass membrane protein. Cell projection, cilium membrane. Note=In airway epithelial cells, localizes to motile cilia |
Tissue Location | Expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelium and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells. Expressed on airway ciliated epithelium |
